It might take a while I hope it's not too long a time When I will see you smiling And I'll know that you are fine Now, baby, understand me And what I have to say Girl, I think it's finally, finally come a time When I had to, had to, had to get away I think it's finally over I wish we could go on as friends But once you leave your lover It's hard to get to friends again You might see me out there On the street with someone new You've got to understand it As a change we must go through No, I didn't mean to hurt you Oh, with what I had to do You know I never dug a bondage scene But I felt tied up with you I think it's finally over I wish we could go on as friends But once you leave your lover It's hard to get to friends again I think it's finally over I wish we could go on as friends And I hope there comes a time when I can laugh with you again But I guess the only way is not to see you until then I think it's finally over I wish we could go on as friends But once you leave your lover It's hard to get to friends again I think it's finally over (I think it's finally over) I wish we could go on as friends But once you leave your lover (Once you leave your lover) It's hard to get to friends again I think it's finally over (I think it's finally over) I wish we could go on as friends
